We chose to work on human practices directly linked with our project : because we were working with CRISPR-Cas9, we tried to know more about it and to learn how to use it in a responsible way. We wanted this research to have a direct effect on our project. While working on the concept of Responsible Research and Innovation we had the idea to create a RRI Test, which works as a feed-back for the projects. The principles of Responsible Research and Innovation guided our research, and the RRI test helped us to reshape it to build a more responsible project. We thus integrated all our human practices on CRISPR-Cas9 by the bias of responsibility : the RRI worked as a tool to integrate our human practices in our project. ★ ALERT!
